Siege Perilous... Oh how I missed you so!

Stratics VeteranStratics Legend

So after about 4 years of hiatus... I have decided to play Ultima Online again. So after some thought, not much really, I have decided to play Siege Perilous. The best times on Ultima Online was the time I spent on Siege Perilous.

So my first agenda was to read up on what new exciting things that has been happening... To my surprise, the world I enjoyed so has changed in many ways, but has also stayed similar in other ways... So this uoherald.com thingy... I am guessing not the best source for anything anymore. I am happy to see uoguide.com is still running and has been quite informative. Is there any other sites that may be helpful for a returning player? I mean I think I spent almost all day catching up on Imbueing, Gargs, and all sorts of new add-ons... I sure missed out on a lot of cool things huh? And these boards... Ever so exciting! I think I read almost all the content I can stand. Speaking of reading the boards.... I am really liking this new Stratics board, very nice! Still getting use to it though, but I am just glad my login information still works!

I guess after typing the above two paragraphs, I forgot to introduce myself, or rather, re-introduce myself. Hellos! My char on Siege Perilous is named Raja, like my Stratics username. When and if holiday trading still happens, you will see my char on all the other shards as the same name. This way there is no confusion as who I am. Unless someone took it upon themselves to use my lovely name... But anywhos... I don't know if anyone remembers me, or even cares too. I don't think I was as active as I could have been while I spent my time on Siege Perilous, but maybe this time around I can put in some effort to meet new people!

So I hope this thread has not been too long just to say "Howdy", but I am kind of excited to play again! I mean... This is a super fun game! I am quite sad because I can't retrieve by old ICQ # to reach out to old friends, and quite honestly, I do not want a new ICQ # that is about twenty digits long.

So...

Howdy! Hellos! Or whatever kind of greeting you see me use... I can't wait to see you on the game!

P.S.Expect another thread in the near future that is just as long, and full of questions/requests for those super neat imbued armor. Looks like I will be needing some to keep up with the fashion!

P.P.S.Forgive me if I had any spelling errors/fragment sentences/or paragraph errors...

@ Sir Morder - I don't think I have ever heard of a guild called "Brothers in Honor". When I did play on Siege Perilous, I use to play with some really fine folks in a really small guild called "Devil's Rejects". I do believe none of them play anymore.I started playing here sometime in 2006. I think I quit sometime in 2008. So anything before and after that would not be me.

I got the name from the Disney movie "Aladdin". Jasmine's tiger was named Raja. I thought it sounded very cute, so I used it for my char here. I later found out her tiger was a male tiger, but by then it was already too late. I was stuck with a male tiger's name wondering through the lands of Britannia...

Sorry back to your question... I guess I never really answered your question. I would have to say no, not the same Raja. Sorry to dissapoint you if you were hoping it was the same Raja. I was only aware I was the only Raja that ever walked the lands of Britannia on all the shards.

Well welcome back to this spectactular game . I myself am fairly new to Siege but when ever you get in game if you need any help my fellow guildies and i and most of the shard is always willing to help. Cant wait to see another player on Siege.

@ Falon of Eldor - We had a nice snowy patch of land in the mountains outside of Luna that I found for us. Otis Driftwood, our GM, thought that would be a nice place to set up a DR town. We all settled there for quite some time. Now it is just an empty patch of snowy land... It was fun when we use to have little guild get togethers there. It was our little town, and it was always nice to have friends being so close.

Somewhere on my hard drive on this old malfunctioning win xp, I still have a screen shot, of Otis DR and a certain WAKA chap I knew from Chesapeake in CiB guild bringing a declaration of WAR, to Wintermoor.

At the time I was the only KSS online in Wintermoor, and felt it was 'my duty' as a Knight to ATTACK both of them for the gaul, to bring a declaration of war to the snows of Wintermoor.

As I attacked Yasou with my lil useless bow for daring to declare war on KSS, Otis pkd me defending the WAKA leader and laughin sayin I was just too fiesty for a knighted 'crafter' ! We 3 all laughed that day.

So I had to take a screenshot
of me lil corpsey on the snows of Wintermoor,
as the WAKA leader and a DR come a calling together, with declarations of war !

@ QueenZen - I still remember the time when DR alligned with WAKA... We devided into two DR guilds, one for factions and one for non-factions. I was part of the non-factions, because I do not pvp. I do recall being attacked on several occasions for having the DR guild tag. It did make running around in the wild more exciting! Also made some nice "red" friends too in the process.
